Hey all, Wesley at the Green Mattress Company in Chattanooga, Tennessee here. I just wanted to share a few thoughts with you. I went to Wal-Mart the other day and saw where they have a "Eco-form" 12 inch memory foam mattress for around $500. This is what I was referring to on my last blog about buying a mattress from stores that do not know anything about mattresses. Although Wal-Mart has a store front and an obvious retail presence, their sales associates know very, very little about the product. I can tell you a little about their "eco" form mattress though. They call it an Eco mattress because it has about 5% soy in it. Thats about it as far as the eco-friendly part goes. Almost every mattress on the market has some soy in it. Their mattress will be about 95% petroleum based (green washing!), hot and not very durable, but it is cheap. It will last a good 6-9 months without getting a crater sized body impression in it. It will also make you hate memory foam because of its heat retention. I know economic times are tough but please do not compromise your health to go "cheap" . There is nothing wrong with shopping at Wal-Mart, I buy my groceries there, but not something as important as my sleep, something I am on for 1/3 of my life. I too carry a cheap $500 queen mattress but it is a pretty solid step ahead of Wal-Mart's version. My $500 queen is and will be greener, more durable and healthier than your Wal-Mart version. Is it the best I carry? No. Is it the most Durable? No. Is it the cheapest? Yes. Buy what you can afford but buy from a mattress dealer that knows what he or she is carrying and buy a product you feel comfortable with knowing that you will spend the next 1/3 of your life on it.
